In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly, iconic filmmaker Michael Bay revealed that his new Transformers movie, Age of Extinction, is actually the first film of a new trilogy. So it looks like Bay is planning to have at least six Transformers films under his belt when he decides to wrap the franchise.
"It's kind of like a new Transformers," Bay said of the fourth installment of the franchise. "We had three, the first trilogy, and this is going to be the next one ... Yeah, it's the first of a new trilogy. I'm not necessarily sure that I'm doing [the others], but that's what it's meant for."
"It's all good. He's a good guy, but three movies, the same guy, it's time, you know what I'm saying?" Bay said of his former star Shia LaBeouf. "It's always good to freshen it up and change the story ... it was mutual. He only wanted to do three, and I think that's all. Then I pulled Mark into this after Pain & Gain, because we had a great time working together."
So there you have it! Get ready for at least two more Transformers movies with Mark Wahlberg in the lead after 2014's Age of Extinction.
Bay went on to explain some plot points for his June 27 release as well.
"Lockdown is an interesting character. He travels the galaxy, he works for somebody else. And he's here for one person, one alien, and then he's out of here," Bay said. "So he doesn't really want to take sides. The cause and balance of the galaxy is kind of messed up when different species play with different species. And that opens up a whole other gigantic world for Transformers."
